bikes, blogs, drinks & sketches...

It seems to me that it's a problem when you go back and read your old journal entries and you actually annoy yourself. And by old I mean two days ago.

I caught the "bike-bug". I got down my old school, hot pink 10 speed last night in the garage, and I wouldn't say it's in stellar shape. So now I want a bike. However...I should probably get a car first. I know bikes are cheaper and better for the environment. But eventually...with the little money I have...I suppose I should put it towards a car...poop...

Oh yeah and blog is everywhere. There was some report on it on 88.7 WBFO this morning. What's the blog craze?

Mmmm...Goldschlager is tasty...

I think later on my lunch I might attempt to sketch a picture...but not with a mouse...one of those funny laptop mouses that you just move your finger along. The results may be scary...

soy un perdedor...and tator tots

I just abandoned a trip to the home of estrip.com to go home and fall asleep. I'm such a loser! I mean I did wake up and paint a house early. AND went shopping. AND bought my father's day present. AND went to spot! (on Elmwood). WHHEWWWW what a day! I'm surprised I can even type!

I'm shocked there are actually 2 e peeps online. I'm generally the only one and have still continued to type in the chat. Oh now 3! So crowded!

I don't like my user pic so much anymore. I miss the penguin. I actually took a picture of myself with my camera phone that is nice. I'm so vain. Camera phones are handy when you are bored though. Anyway, maybe I'll post that pic. It's fairly cute and therefore a completely inaccurate portrayal of yours truly.

How would you feel if someone compared the shape of your body to a tator tot?

Billy Shakespeare

Everybody...go see Shakespeare in the Park! Henry IV is the first half of summer, followed by another play in late July thru August.

Spend some time on the strip, then bring a blanket, some wine, some food, and sit back and enjoy some great theater. Admire the Rose Garden while you're at it, of course. Support the arts! Come out and enjoy a night at the park! It should be grrrrrrrreat. Hope to see y'all there.

fun on your back

Yesterday I bought a backpack. Sorta random, since it's the middle of summer. But I had a nice coupon through my lovely Student Advantage card for an online purchase (http://www.ebags.com). I haven't owned a backpack since my sophomore year of high school. I miss it! Yay backpacks. :0)

elmwood strippers?

I don't know what all the fuss is about, my userpic is clearly me and my handsome, prince boyfriend.

j/k. I agree, post your own pic. Mike you have your own pic in a way. An artist's rendering. I used to have mine up but not too many others really did, making me feel shallow and freakish. Ok well maybe not that bad. But I took it down, and now I better rethink that move based on demands of my fellow elmwood strip...pers.

Elmwood strippers? Hmm I don't think I like that. I wonder how long until we have a name for ourselves...or if we ever will. People who collect in large numbers online often have, err, clever names...Grobanites (Josh Groban fans), Baleheads (Christian Bale fans), X-Philes (duh)...and I only know these courtesy of my sister. I SWEAR!

Anyway..names are a little cheesy. Will we eventually have one? Should we? Hmmm...

a drive-by bannering

Got a little sneak peek of the banner as I drove down Elmwood home from work yesterday...

Lookin good. I tried taking a picture on my handy little phone...then the light turned green and I ended up with a blurry picture of some cars and trees. Not really the result I was hoping for.

Lake George...I believe I will be somewhere near there this weekend.

p.s. Right now my life is work > social life. I don't think I'm taking too well to it...

Office Space

JessBob I can relate your qualms (is that how you spell it?) with the working world. I find myself at work given a large amount of time to do tasks that actually take me about a quarter of the time given, so I end up sitting around checking my mail or elmwoodstrip obsessively. (And yes, I do feel guilty since this isn't like reading the newspaper and I'm being paid for doing erroneous things.) My computer isn't exactly in the middle of the room, but everytime I hear someone coming I frantically minimize or close the window. I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up starting this very entry over like four times. Sometimes if I've truly exhausted the possibilities of the Internet, I resort to Minesweeper or Spider Solitaire. But closing a game of Minesweeper when you might almost have won is a terribly disappointing feeling.

Well I really hope someone from the office discovers this entry, hahaha...not!

Have a nice day...or should I say it's been a pleasure...??

big pimpin

I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome Jesse to estrip. It's about time. Now we have a little "DC connection" in the house. Wish I could have seen you more before you left. SOMEONE told me you weren't leaving until NEXT monday. Well the family has been known to head down to that political neck of the woods so maybe I will see you.

In other news...bacon is scrumptious.
